Thursday Door

A door, a single door, an inexpensive find, a wanted door, BUT an “I can’t have ” door. Imagine productively searching the aisles for how to get to what I was after without being around people. I saw an opening and headed that way, it was a bit of a detour but I would get to the fresh breads/baking, and could go towards dog/animal foods later.. Aimed the cart for the open space and stopped in my tracks. A DOOR.. a blank wooden door, a faux barn door complete with the hardware. A door chaser, an artist, a “covid” bored adult with time on my hands.. A door I could bring home.. NOT!! I am in cutting back, giving away, declutter mode.. a blank door.. OMG what to do. I got out my camera and took a picture while I stood fixated on the spot. Oh dear, Oh dear, I can’t bring it home, try as I might I just have no where to put it. A barn door is so out of character for a small war time house. so guys and gals, the door is getting featured in today’s THURSDAY DOORS.

No competition from me with a door already rich with character, an oldie or a new found “treasure” I am giving it a place all to itself. Let your imagination go wild, this door has so much potential, endless possibilities.. I’d say it can be useful as well as a blank canvas.

Next week I’ll be back with more doors, meanwhile, I told this door, it would have a place today where someone else might also appreciate it.. btw.. while I stood contemplating this beautiful door, the rest of the activity in the store, and you know a Costco can be busy, simply faded and disappeared.

Doors are “magic” come up to one, walk thru one, a whole new “moment” awaits you.

Tell yourself “things happen” Even if something is inconvenient, once you accept it you’ll be able to move onto the next step.

Don’t be swayed by the past; It’s what you do from now on that counts. Your failures as well as your successes are now in the past. Always look towards the future and start with a fresh outlook.

strolling

Early morning stroll through the woods was amazingly peaceful. I saw another ermine, many squirrels, chipmunks, and I can’t swear to what it was, but it was an animal, bigger than a squirrel, black, sleek with white streaked by me through the thickets, under a raised foot path, and into an area of brush. Because it was a rich black satin and there was a lot of white, I thought of a skunk, but.. skunks I’ve seen in the past, waddle, and have girth, this animal was sleek. What few people I did see were off in the distance, on another trail. Any ideas? It was fast and ran like the ermine does.. a graceful leaping action.

The weather forecasters are calling for even higher temperatures over the next couple of days. There was little to no snow in the woods, with the ongoing balmy weather, we should be seeing a lot of new growth soon. I’ve almost depleted my sunflower seeds.. I left the squirrel to his breakfast, the supply will simply disappear by next visit.

Tell yourself “things happen” Even if something is inconvenient, once you accept it you’ll be able to move onto the next step.

the dress

A dress for all seasons.. maybe not… but it is a dress to go anywhere and do anything in.

the designer meant it for a “going out” dress.. It is labelled a cocktail dress… however, Alo liked it as a comfortable get around in dress. It wore well when she explored Cloven Forest http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Cloven/232/232/23

We found Cloven Forest while looking for a place to get some relaxation in, and get some work done. Cloven Forest is billed as a quiet calm place “that will comfort your soul as you wander beneath a canopy of trees and explore the forest. They( the owners of the sim) encourage photography and the build is wonderfully set out to allow for a lot of pictures both for singles and couples.

Clothes are such an interesting article in our wardrobe. I know there are many, not just myself and some of my friends, who dress for comfort…. you might be someone who shares my dislike having to dress to please someone else. I was never good at accepting having to wear a “uniform”. I am guilty of having once been a Designer -“labels” devotee…. thankfully I outgrew the phase.

The dress or clothing you wear should be # 1 comfortable .. I’m not one to say I only wear #$%, if I see something I like and it will be comfortable to wear, and easy to look after. then its a winner. My problem is that my “character” wants change from day to day. AND of course there is the question of , will naughty, nice, playful, serious, chilling, come into the equation of what to wear and how to wear it.

Think about what you wear, why you wear it, and how you wear it. Does what you come up with, stay the same from day to day, or does it change with your mood, the season, etc.

Yes contemplating the dress, dressing, and how to build the character that is seen visually, is always a good time filler. Another day we can discuss, the rest of the componets that make up your avatar. In SL we call it an avatar, in the RL, its the many personalities we wear from day to day.

How do you see yourself.

You’re happy, I’m happy. Have the mindset of “good for you, good for me” Express yourself in a way that makes others happy.

Monday, Monday

Listen carefully and speak clearly. A good relationship starts from truly understanding each other.
Perfect Liberty 2021.5

Sometimes, one is engulfed in a sadness or an over powering emotion that simply defies definition. There is not always a black and white solution. A caring partner/listener will do his/her best to not only listen to what is being said, but to read between the lines, about what is not being said.

The longer a friendship exists, the more the other person can understand and or relate to what their friend is going through, how much that person will actually “say out loud” and /or even acknowledge. Caring isn’t something we can pretend to do, sincerity in word/action is something that cannot be “faked”.

“Listen” and “see” with careful attention and accept each other. Focus your “eyes” and “ears” towards the expression of others without preconceived notions. Then you will be able to see their true intentions.

sittin’ in the morning sun

My attentions were not wanted. I can understand atho’ bright and sunny, there was a 30- 40 kmph wind happening. She had found a nice warm patch, the squirrels and chipmunks had scattered when I arrived.. it was peaceful and calm, I was an intrusion.

two feeders left, I have enough feed for another visit.

I had a very productive morning laid out, since the province is going on a shut down after midnight tonight, I thought to get some groceries in. Especially after my surgery come middle of the month, I am told I will not want or be able to do much for the first week or so. (activities, ie. running for groceries etc.) I will only be able to deal with soft food, should I have an appetite at all. However, that said, I do need to keep my body fed, I am diabetic and simply not eating is not an option.

Finding that the shops were all closed today, open tomorrow (with limitations) I took the time to play with my camera. At Dewberry it was one giant wind tunnel, I didn’t stay long, I filled the feeders, said hello to my male and female grosbeak that came to say hello.. and left. The above pictures were taken at Mer Bleue. The sky was alive with blue jays, I could see the flashes of white as they flew from tree branch to tree branch high in the surrounding trees. There were few of the smaller birds around this morning, the high winds could have been a factor.

Be a person who can say “I like it” Find what moves you the most and express your appreciation.

Be forever young and seek new challenges. The world is constantly in motion and never rests. Keep your sense sharp and be ready to adapt to the very changing world.

Take care dear friends, if today is a holiday for you, observe the meaning of the day, carry your thoughts into the celebration of the holiday. It is a special time. If this is a day off and an opportunity for you to rest and enjoy some ME time… don’t squander the time, celebrate being YOU.

Deus Natureza -God and Nature

We are not born wise, wisdom is something we acquire as we make our way through life, some lessons learned are more thought provoking than others. Always the opportunity lies waiting, often as bold as brass, sometimes not, but always, the opportunity awaits discovery.

The other day, I picked up a small wooden puzzle of a flamingo. 22 pieces of wood that one takes apart and assembles, Everything needed is included. 2 sheets of wood with laser cut pieces ready to be pieced together. sounds simple doesn’t it.

Well not obviously to me. I saw it and thought it would be fun painted. I took the two sheets of balsa wood and thought about how best to paint it .. decided a white first coat would be good to prime it before I got fancy with the acrylic colours. FOCUSED on the painting of it, I proceeded to lavishly coat it with primer and a base of Titanium white acrylic. Set it aside to let it dry.

All you woodworking buddies out there, have you started groaning yet. Yup I did that. I was even considering if I should do colour splashes on the sheets while they were still all together on the sheet.

Not once did it enter my noggin that in so doing I would be bonding the pieces with the medium. Nor when I came to take the pieces apart, did it dawn on me to first use my knife to cut the pieces .. I have a full set of blades, several different handles, I am well prepared for such tasks, I’ve worked with wood for as long as I can remember. What was i thinking!!! OK we know the answer, I wasn’t.

Needless to say. I made a mess of things. It happens, the horror of it all struck me with a lightening punch. “Girl, where was your head”

It’s okay to think “this is where it starts” There is always a turning point. It’s important what you do from now.
Perfect Liberty 2021.27

Will I have the patience to try and put those pieces together, repair all the torn and broken ones, the simple reply is NO. It was an idea that came and went. I accept that I made a shambles of it. Obviously my mind was not on what I was doing, only on one part of the project. In not thinking it through first, I made a proper mess of it.

Time to go find my Canon and wander off into the day. I wish you all a very happy and productive day. Love YOU.

Obrigado, thank you PL, por me ensinar amar assim, por ver Deus dentro de mim e em quallquer lugar. for teaching me to love and to see God within me, and everywhere around.

wet interlude

I woke to a dreary gray sky, a steady rain, and a forecast of ongoing rain for the day. I have to admit I was not keen to jump out of bed and dress for an outing. So, instead I tackled an admin project I needed to do. By noon I had that done and could look at what to do next. I had been thinking about the birds and how they were doing, I saw that it was still a downpour… but .. decided, rain or not, I should check to see what they were doing, IF they were even still there.

It poured sheets of rain while I made my way out of city towards the green space. I’m happy to report that as I drove closer to my destination, the rain slowed down. By the time I got to the parking area…. it had stopped raining!! Yuuu hooo katchooo. I opened the door, stepped out to the wonderful sound of birds singing and gossiping.. the chatter got even louder as I walked down towards the feeders.. My heart sang.

I saw my female Grosbeak dart up into the trees, when I put the fresh sunflower seeds in her basket she was not long in coming down to enjoy them. She did have a few words to say to me tho’.. I have been neglectful.. Who knew she was going to stick around. I can’t swear to it, but I think she gave me a bit of a talking to. the other birds that made me aware of their presence were my (yes my) wood peckers.. they went to the empty nut feeders and squawked. NO its not my imagination.. the nut feeders they like were all empty except for one and it was almost empty.

Properly chastised I dutifully refilled two of the feeders. I did remove two .. and I did not refill the suet. I do want them to start seeking food from their environment. Besides Suet can go rancid in the warmer weather. I put down sunflower seeds and peanuts.. the birds were happy. I was happy. I really love them.. when they start singing and chirping away I could listen to them for hours. All the time I spent with them, the sky stayed dry. No blue Jays, even with the peanuts..

There were birds everywhere in the trees all around in the woods, it was a full blown chorus. The songs were coming from all directions, from deep in the woods, the area across the road, I was so happy that I made the drive out to visit with them. Happiness is following your heart!

**the haughty look on the female that Kevin took, is really how she can look, but she does have another look.. that is like a smile.. and when she is happy she has the sweetest voice. =^_^=

I think I’m having or on a bird high =^_^=… nite all.. I’ll tweet myself to bird land.. —
